Aywas is a collectible pet site for older teens and adults. Adopt as many pets as you want, and explore the seven regions of Ay for wild pets to capture and add to your collection. We are a submission-based virtual pet website, so you can color pets, create items, and create Human Avatar clothes for everyone else to enjoy. We offer battling, breeding, mini-games, an active forum, and the ability to create your own custom aywas. Color the adoptable bases, and even edit them to look more like your characters. The possibilities are endless!

As promised on the Service Dog announcement, the Mystery Box has opened!
If you're not familiar with the Mystery Box, it's a special extra item you get for every purchase of $5.00 or more. Tickets go into the feature associated with it. If you're extra lucky, you'll get something awesome!
Remember, if you buy USD Items, be sure to send a PM to #15 with the name of the items you bought, the quantity, and the total price. Also, please keep in mind that we've removed the Artist Paintbrushes from the USD Shop temporarily. They will return after the sale has completed.
The Mystery Box sale will continue until 11:59 PM on August 3.
Remember that 10% of whatever you buy today (August 2nd) goes toward our designated charity, which we've been keeping track of over here!
Let's start off with an Awesome August~

Good morning, folks!
Since you normally wouldn't know who is talking to you until you get to the end of the news post, and by now might've even forgotten who I am, let me re-introduce myself: Hi, I'm Eri! :3 I do a lot of things around Aywas but recently got unexpectedly sucked into this portal called "real life." Let me tell you, I like it here much better!
I've been working for Aywas for nearly six years, and have rarely been away from it for more than 24 hours at a time since then. Typically when I'm going to be away--or when any administrator suffers the same IRL fate that I just experienced--coverage plans are generally put in place. Unfortunately, I got hit with a series of whirlwind things that I wasn't really able to plan or slow down for. Hence, chaos!
Seriously though, I deeply apologize for any inconveniences my unexpected absence has caused and am sorry that I was not available to help you guys like I usually am.
Happily, since IRL has thrown so much at me in such a short amount of time, I think it's done being so demanding for a while, so you guys are stuck with me until the day Slash can't stand me anymore. 8D
As you might've guessed, my Inbox is a mess and I have a lot of catching up to do, so I will do my best to tackle all of those things as swiftly as I can. However, business comes with the territory, so please don't hesitate to PM me about anything, or if you run into me on the forums, feel free to say hi. After all, I've missed talking with you guys and will probably be bouncing around the boards in between tasks. :3
Prepare to get annoyed by more news posts from me soon!
(I'll try not to spam you too bad, honest. *wink*)

I know we have a lovely new event going on (see news post below!) but if you could paws for a minute and bear to bring your attention to the Trash for Treasure shop, we have another lovely item for you to add to your collection!
This lovely collectable will stock until 26th August - so you have plenty of time to gather a sleuth of these lovely cuddly folks!
